| Rashard Mendenhall or Doug Martin? (Posted on 10/3/12 at 4:23 pm)
In your opinion, who is the better keep? Mendenhall coming off injury with fresh legs, or Martin who hasn't done much so far.

Martin hasn't met expectations, but he has some very favorable matchups in the next several weeks.

I have Rice, FJax, Spiller, Mendenhall, and Martin. Was just wondering who would be the better 4th option.

I'd have to say Martin. But if Mendenhall wasn't coming off an injury, this wouldn't even be close. I usually don't like rookie running backs, just my opinion. I have FJax and Spiller in one my leagues so to see them get nicked already isn't good. From here on out it looks like a time share between those two...dammit.

Spiller will still give you 20-25 even with splitting carries. Tough matchup this week though.

Mendenhall and fresh legs do not belong in the same sentence

Do you have to drop one? Why not keep both? Mendenhall may not be the best option immediately, but could be strong down the road. Martin is coming off a bad game, but could also be better down the road. Unless you're in an eight-team league, why would drop guys with this kind of potential?

Problem solved. Traded FJax, Mendenhall, and Witten for Gronk. New lineup: QB Eli Manning RB1 Ray Rice RB2 CJ Spiller WR1 Victor Cruz WR2 Julio Jones TE Rob Gronkowski FLEX Reggie Wayne
